CPM Runners Help Raise Funds for Mollii Therapy Suit
Runners help Jack raise £4093!
A team of runners from Birmingham Charity, Cerebral Palsy Midlands, participated in the “A J Bell Great Birmingham Run” event for Jack and his Mollii therapy suit on Sunday 5th May. As if running the 10k route wasn’t challenging enough, the team of runners pushed Jack in a sports wheelchair around the 10k course as well. We are grateful to all the runners, supporters, and donors who have contributed to the cause.
Thanks to the collective efforts of Heidi and Jack, they were able to raise £4,093 towards Jack's own Mollii therapy suit. The Mollii therapy suit is a revolutionary design that aids people suffering from spasticity, muscle weakness, movement disorders, pain, and related symptoms. Jack, who has cerebral palsy, was able to try the suit on 'BBC's The One Show' with 'National Star College' and achieved significant improvements. For the first time, he was able to sit up straight, hold his head up, feed himself, and walk using a walker outside.
Jack has a wedding coming up and is striving to acquire his own suit so he can walk down the aisle for his fiancée Beth. The cost of the suit is £6,000. We are so pleased to have boosted his fundraising to get closer to his dream.

There is still time to support our cause to help Jack and make a donation. What a difference we will make to Jack, when he has his Mollii suit and gets to dance and walk down the aisle at his wedding to his finacee and huckleberry Beth.
